Ultrasound with remote assistance (tele-ultrasound) may have potential to improve accessibility of ultrasound for prehospital patients. A review of recent literature on this topic has not been done before, and the feasibility of prehospital tele-ultrasound performed by non-physician personnel is unclear. In an effort to address this, the literature was qualitatively analyzed from January 1, 2010 - December 31, 2021 in the MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane online databases on prehospital, paramedic-acquired tele-ultrasound, and ten articles were found. There was considerable heterogeneity in the study design, technologies used, and the amount of ultrasound training for the paramedics, preventing cross-comparisons of different studies. Tele-ultrasound has potential to improve ultrasound accessibility by leveraging skills of a remote ultrasound expert, but there are still technological barriers to overcome before determinations on feasibility can be made.
远程协助超声(远程超声)有可能提高院前患者获得超声的便利性。之前尚未对该主题的最新文献进行综述,并且非医务人员进行院前远程超声的可行性尚不清楚。为了解决这个问题,我们从 2010 年 1 月 1 日至 2021 年 12 月 31 日,在 MEDLINE、EMBASE 和 Cochrane 在线数据库中对院前、护理人员获得的远程超声进行了定性分析,共找到了 10 篇文章。由于研究设计、使用的技术以及护理人员的超声培训量存在很大的异质性,使得不同研究之间无法进行交叉比较。远程超声有可能通过利用远程超声专家的技能来提高超声的可及性,但在确定可行性之前,仍有一些技术障碍需要克服。
